Anyone ever buy one of these gold bars smelted in other countries? Maybe nobody here has but I'm thinking they must sell being on feebay and all. Any comments? https://www.ebay.com/itm/2645665657...4edb987ca5a84379efd3|ampid:PL_CLK|clp:2334524
BE AWARE THAT IT IS NOT SOLID GOLD BAR That pretty much tells it all. They even say it won't test as real gold, so why buy it?
Yes its from computers, phones e.t.c and its hard work and labor to get it out but for some people thats there life.
Doesnt even say FROM, says FOR. Probably wheel and fishing weight lead with a sprayed on gold plating. Why bother with it at all? IT Doesn't even have a cool factor.
So true, the ad says it all yet people with money to burn buy them as a novelty I guess. "There's a sucker born every minute!"
lots of fakes out there, this doesn't seem to provide the necessary security when dealing with gold or any other PM,S, always best to buy from a reputable company that can in addition provide an assay, most 1 OZ gold bars come with assays, raw coins do not unless you get them graded, and everybody in the room knows how I feel about grading bullion coins to insure the real deal, maybe, to pay the premiums of a high graded coin ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!
just a couple examples, in coin form to get in to AGE,S you looking about a minimum investment of $250 some of the gram bars can be had at a fraction and you can build off of that.
I paid $230 for a 1/10th oz 2021 AGE. That's about $75/gram considering it's 3.11 grams of gold. Usually smaller sized bars sell for ~$65-70/gram so the savings isn't really that significant in the end.
Well the cheapest 1/10 OZ on the bay is $249 and you can get a 1 gram bar for $78 so if I had $80 I could still have enough to buy the bar but not the coin.
